Is single-ended antenna a type of monopole antenna?
In datasheet of my MCU (CC2430), they give here the length of monopole atenna, and i'd like to know if it applies also to single-ended antenna.
"
The single-ended monopole and helical would require a balun network between the differential output and the antenna.
Monopole antennas are resonant antennas with a length corresponding to one quarter of the electrical wavelength (λ/4).
They are very easy to design and can be implemented simply as a “piece of wire” or even integrated into the PCB.
The length of the λ/4-monopole antenna is given by:
L = 7125 / f ,
where f is in MHz, giving the length in cm.

Thank you.
